Cozens VJ CNote de l'editeurD.-Il est difficile d'ecrire quelque chose d'interessant, et en meme temps d'assez simple pour que la plupart des lecteurs puissent le comprendre. Ainsi nous nous sommes servons d'un vocabulaire tout elementaire partout ou c'est possible. Ik lk ik Le Professeur:-Expliquez le mot ',Vide' Dorothee. Dorothee-Ie ne peux pas l'expliquez, mais je l'ai dans la tete. if Ik lk soN REVE REALISE Il y a trente.et un -ans un Francais. Iules Vernes, ecrit un livre titre Vingt Mille Lieues Sous Les Mers. Dans ce livre que quelques eleves de ',L'ecole superieureu lisent cet an, il expliqua ses idees des possibilites scientifiques qui, en ces jours-la semblerent tout impossibles et quelques-unes de qui meme aujourd'hui ont besoin d'une tres bonne imagination. Il raconta d'un tour du monde dans un . . , bateau electrlque nomme ',Le Naut1lus', qui pouvait navlguer sous les mers. Un tel fait etait considere impossible mais le reve de Vernes materialisa dans le sous-marin de nos Jours. Un part encore plus insense de son reve etait une excursion au pole sud en navi- guant sous la glace. Pendant le retour le Nautilus etait attrape entre deux enfoncees montagnes de glacc et il fallait que des hommes de lwquipage portant des scaph- andres le deterrassent. Cet an-ci, 1951, un Americain, Sir Hubert Xvillxins, va tacher d'atteindre de pole nord par les memes methodes que Iules Vernes imaginait. Son sous-marin fut equipe specialement pour le voyage et ll tut baptise a propos, II ' le Nautilus. La ceremonie fut executee par la femme de Sir Hubert, aidee par lean Jules Vernes, petit-fils de l'auteur de qui nous ecrivons. .Symbolique de laldestination du Nau- tilus, II. on se servit d'un seau de fflace cassee pour le bapteme. D Il est tres interessant de noter la realisation graduelle des reves de Iules Vernes et nous sommes positifs que tout le monde veut a Sir Hubert-Bon Voyage. LA BONNE EXCUSE Vous ne pechez pas donc cette annee? Ma toi, non, les poissons sont si chers. Ik PF lk Le Touriste:-Avez-vous demeure ici pendant toute votre vie?

Lorsque la le nid se tourne la poule regarde, oeuf, elle croit qu'elle est dans l'erreur et elle pond de nouveau. Ik Bk if LA MAISON Oli! ne quittez jamais, c'est moi qul vous le dis Le devant de la porte ou l'on jouait jadis L'eglise ou, tout enfant, et d'une voix legere. - X X chantiez a la messe aupres de votre mereg petite ecole, ou, trainant chaque pas, s alliez le matin, ohl ne la quittez pasl Car une fois perdus parmi les capitales, Ces immenses Paris, aux tourments tiatals Repos, fraiche gaiete, tout s'y vient Vous Et la Vous engloutir, Et vous les maudissez sans pouvoir en sortir.

RAREBITS 51 CAPTAIN ANDY HYSLOP of the B. H. S. Cadet Corps. Glzthetsa By CAPT. ANDY HYSLOP, V. The second annual inspection of the Burlington High School Cadet Corps took place early in Iune 1950 under the direction of the Commanding Officer, Captain Andy Hyslop. The musketry drill and military manoeuvres were carried out in splendid style by the cadets, and their platoon commanders, Lieutenants George Walker, Vic Har- shaw, Warren McNiven and Douglas Munger. The cadets gave a physical training demonstration under the direction of Sergt. Major Huggett of the Cadet Services of Canada. This is the second year that the sergeant major has been 34 PF Pk It is very hard to drive a bargain, said the fellow who had bought an old Ford for SIU. with the corps, and he has won the respect and admiration of all ranks. Col. McCrimmon, the inspecting officer, in his comments congratulated the in- structors, officers and cadets on their fine work. The one disadvantage pointed out was the lack of uniforms. He spoke highly of the Signallers under Lieut. Art Jones and the First Aid Corps under Lieut. VV. D. Clifton. Through the efforts of the School Board the corps now has uniforms. They were much in evidence on Armis- tice Day and will undoubtedly exert a great influence on the morale of the unit. ak wk Fk The absent-minded air man who for- got his parachute-isn't absent minded any more.
